Outstanding service!! Luke took a look at my brakes, described their condition, and explained my options, without being condescending, or pushy. Making an appointment was easy and he completed the work in the estimated time, then test drove my car before handing it back to me, and all for a very reasonable price. He is professional, genuine, and skilled, and I highly recommend him. Like the sign says, no gimmicks, just great work and top-quality replacement parts.

I want to start out by saying the service here is stellar. In the past, I have brought all three of my cars here over the last 12 years. The mechanics here are kind and extremely honest. You don’t need something done right away but should be done in the near future? They’ll let you know. They won’t nickel and dime you like other mechanics will. The pricing here is super reasonable too. And I mean, SUPER reasonable. I had my squealing brakes done at a dealership with my newest BMW last week and the week prior (which of course is super expensive and I thought was under warranty …it wasn’t….) and they did a horrible job, TWICE. And they didn’t fix the one issue I went in there for. In fact, they had made the issue way worse after they “fixed” my brakes. Incredibly frustrated, I decided that I’m not making the trip back to that dealership ever again, as the mechanics there clearly didn’t know how to fix the problem. I came to The Brake Shop today and I was told exactly what was wrong and exactly how long it would take to fix the problem. Resurface my rotors and brake pads. I was super surprised to see it didn’t take a minute longer than what I was told. Luke, my tech, was incredibly helpful. He diagnosed and fixed the issue with my squealing front brakes just this morning. An issue I’ve been battling the last few weeks, and quite frankly driving me crazy, has been resolved by a mechanic that actually took the time to figure out what was wrong and diagnose it and explain why the issue happens in the first place. And if that solution doesn’t work? Figure out another solution to the problem. He quelled my worries right away about that. But the solution Luke provided did work, that’s why this review is so long! My brakes are the smoothest they’ve EVER felt. Seriously. I’ve had this car for two years now, purchased used, and they’ve never been so smooth. And I just got new brake pads and rotors on both front AND back in the last two weeks. I’m seriously super impressed. They’re better resurfaced than they were brand new!!!! They say people either leave reviews if they’re super happy or upset. Well, I’m obviously super happy! Don’t go anywhere else but here. I will tell every single person I know to come to this shop. Support a family business who knows how to treat you well and make sure you’re satisfied with your service or they’ll do their best to make it right. Thank you guys.

I was referred to this place by my co-worker. Luke Hendrickson( my coworker calls him "Luke Skywalker ") was great. My visit was for brakes inspection. I was fully informed for the work needed to be done and cost. Astonishingly impressed by his honesty, quality of work, punctuality, and friendliness. What an impeccable service! I highly recommend this place. Very trustworthy 👏

Luke is an amazing guy, works hard and earns his wages. He helped us out until he could do no more and was in regular contact through the entire process.

I had the absolute best experience at The Brake Shop! Luke (I believe the owner) personally took care of my car, and I can’t recommend him enough. From the start, he was upfront, honest, and took the time to explain everything before doing any work—no surprises, just great service. His pricing was extremely reasonable, and the quality of his work was top-notch. The waiting area is very clean and comfortable. Not only was he fast and efficient, but he also seems like a genuinely kind and good person who truly cares about his customers. It’s rare to find a business with this level of integrity and customer care. If you need brake work done, do yourself a favor and go see Luke at The Brake Shop! I’ll definitely be returning for any future needs!

Brakes done to perfection! Luke’s shop Replaced on same day service on time. A few days later I needed to drive from Vancouver (WA), to Sacramento. The brakes on my 2015 Traverse never performed better! I highly recommend The Brake Shop!

⭐ 1/5 — Extremely Unprofessional. Stay Away. I brought my car in for a brake repair with a scheduled appointment. They took the vehicle, looked at it, and then told me that they don’t have the proper tools to fix the issue. Instead of apologizing for their own lack of capability, they forced me to pay $80 even though they did absolutely nothing. When I questioned the charge, the staff became aggressive and even threatened to hold my car unless I paid. This is completely unacceptable and highly unprofessional. If you don’t have the right tools, that is NOT the customer’s fault — it clearly shows that this shop is not prepared or qualified to work on vehicles. The staff is careless, unprofessional, and their behavior is beyond inappropriate. I do not recommend this place under any circumstances. Stay far away.

This guy is awesome! Just a family dude running his own shop. I’ve taken 2 cars to him and recommended many other folks his way. Often times after an oil change and multi point inspection from honest one they’ll tell me I need 4 or 5 different repairs. Then I’ll take my car to luke and tell me the truth. He’s turned town work I was ready to pay for on the spot simply because it wasn’t needed. And the work he does take has often seemed under priced when compared to anywhere else I’ve been. The work always holds up. There have been a couple large or odd jobs outside of his expertise but I appreciate his honesty about what’s within his scope at his shop. When this was the case, he gave a recommendation and sure enough that shop was perfect for the job. Good dude! 🤙

Luke was recommended to me by a very friendly Lyft driver who used to sell parts to the shop, and I’m so happy that I tried out The Break Shop. They just did my shocks and struts and it couldn’t have gone more smoothly. Communication is easy, pricing is honest and fair, and the work is the best! I’ll definitely come back again for my next tune up and break job. Thanks!

Dealership told me I needed new brakes all around in my vehicle. Now I knew that I had just replaced the rear brake pads a week before that, so I didn’t believe that and went to Brake Shop on Mill Plain for a second opinion. Glad I did. The brakes in the front and back had lots of life left on them. These folks are trustworthy and that alone gets my business, on top of the fact that they were 30% less expensive than what the dealership quoted me. So happy to find these guys.

I had such a great experience! Communication was top-notch from the start. Scheduling was easy and I was able to get my car in quickly to have my brakes checked. I was informed of what work needed to be done immediately and what could wait until later. I even paid less than I was expecting to. I can’t recommend enough and will definitely be back.

Luke is the most helpful and honest mechanic I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with. He communicates, tells you exactly what your car will need and takes care of it at a great price. My brakes are amazing too! I cannot recommend this place enough.

I brought my Toyota Camry here for a brake check and asked them to also check the motor mounts on my vehicle. They gave me a clean bill of health on my vehicle and did not charge me a dime for the inspection. I will be bringing my vehicles here for brake service from now on. This type of honesty and integrity n this day and age should be rewarded. The brake shop has earned a customer for life.

My brake light came on suddenly this morning, called this shop after a few others quoted me $75-$100 just for an inspection. Luke got me in within a half an hour, inspected my brakes for free, all it needed was the brake fluid topped off. He made sure my vehicle was safe, was kind and timely. We were in and out within an hour from the time I called! Will absolutely be back!
